Rio Grande Games Dominion Prosperity

The Dominion series is one of the best games Ive ever played and Im not just talking deck building games. It has spectacular re-playability because of nearly endless options, strategies, and combos yet Dominion is easy to learn and fun to play. 99% of what you need to know is clearly written right on each card. The expansions, such as Prosperity, really add a lot of new options and fun twists on the original game. All of the expansions are very appropriately titled. Prosperity is all about extreme wealth. If you like lots of points and lots of treasure Prosperity is great. The opposite expansion set is Dominion: Dark Ages in which you start out in the dark ages with little wealth and must build your way out of poverty. You will find that many games sell expansions simply to continue sales and the expansion packs just add more quantity but dont actually expand or enrich game play at all. Not so with Dominion. All of the Dominion expansions add many new dimensions and options to game play and take strategies in entirely new directions. I have yet to be let down by any Dominion set. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT YOU MUST OWN A BASE SET BEFORE BUYING AN EXPANSION. The expansions do not come with the base cards and are not playable without them so if the Dominion set you are looking at buying says Expansion you must first buy a base set. This is clearly stated on all expansion boxes. The base card set comes in the original Dominion game or you can buy the Dominion Base Cards set separately.

I have purchased all of the Dominion sets. This one is an expansion (you will need the original Dominion or the Intrigue set as well). It is, in my opinion, the most exciting expansion set, adding new victory and money cards and a lot of interesting powerful mechanics. Though there are more expensive victory cards to purchase, the game often ends as quickly as standard set games.

Adds many options for longer play time. More money options. Great expansion. Not the standalone game. You need the original.

This is my favorite expansion for Dominion so far. The addition of Platinum and Colonies makes playing with these cards a longer, more money oriented game. We love it.

Great addition to the base game. Adds platinum and Colony, as well as a bunch of other fun cards!

Fun expansion!

This is my first expansion pack for my Dominion game. You need the Dominion base game in order to use this expansion. It is not a stand alone set. This particular expansion has a lot of powerful cards in it. I would recommend only using a few cards from this set at a time, otherwise you will accumulate treasure cards too quickly and the game wont be fun. That said, there are higher value action cards in this set and new treasure and victory cards that add more depth and strategy to the game. I highly recommend Dominion and this expansion. The price on the base game and on the expansion sets are a little higher than a lot of other games but it is absolutely worth it. This is the only game in my house that gets played every single week.

Great expansion!

Really fun for for big money and engine players. Good addition to your Dominion set.

great game. I have 4 expansions to add to the variety possible.
